The Outsiders is the best book because it reveals the significance of family and friends, bravery and courage, and equality for all people. First, the book explains, that family and friends are an important part of life. S.E. Hinton demonstrates the connection between the Curtis brothers when the family gets into fights about Ponyboys future and encourages him to stay in school. Also, when Darry becomes the father figure after their parents died.  Next, The Outsiders show that no matter how much money or how they look on the outside people should all be treated the same.

Lastly, the book proves that bravery and courage can appear in even the most coy of people. Next the author confirms unexpected heroism when she writes about Johnny, the shy pet of the gang, stepping up to save children from a burning church with Pony boy by his side.

Johnny is the best male literary lead character because he protects Ponyboy from the Soc’s,  he keeps Ponyboy out of trouble with the cops and he rescues the children from the fire.  He changes from the beginning when he was a scared kid but became a brave hero.  But yet he still stayed the same kind kid that he was in the beginning. Johnny protects Ponyboy when they  get caught by the Soc’s and Johnny helps them escape. Bob took ponyboy and started drowning him but Johnny stopped him, even though he killed him. Even though he would get in trouble he protected Pony when he was getting hurt. Johnny keeps Pony out of trouble when he took Pony and they ran away so they both would not get in big trouble. He and Pony ran away out in the country where they wouldn't be found.  And if it wasn't for Johnny then they would have been caught and in a lot of trouble. Johnny rescues the children when the church that they were staying at caught on fire and there were children stuck in there. Johnny and Ponyboy went in and saved them or else they would would have died.  Without Johnny’s selflessness the children would have been in big trouble. Johnny helped those kids and put those kids before him. One reason Johnny should be chosen for the MLL, is how that he was he was always there for his friends. In this paragraph we talked about how Johnny protected Pony from the Socs when they wear gonna hurt him, how that he kept Pony outta trouble and away from the cops so he wouldn't get in trouble and lastly when he helped those kids in the burning church.  I believe that Johnny should be chosen is because without him this story would never have developed and never gotten worse than better. He changed everyone in this story for better or worse he changed people and that's would deserves to win. Johnny Cade is the best male literary lead.

Cherry is the best female literary lead because she likes Ponyboy for who he is, she stands up for herself,and she knows that being a part of a group that always wants to fight and hurt people isn´t the best idea of being good. Cherry Valance likes Ponyboy for who he is. This matters because Cherry and Ponyboy have a special bond in the story.  Cherry stands up for herself and Ponyboy. Cherry knows that she doesn’t want to be controlled and pushed around so she is not going to let that happen, and everyone knows that Cherry stands up for herself. Cherry knows that Socs are a little mean and that they aren´t the best people. Cherry is a Soc and in the middle of the story she realizes that maybe being a part of these groups is not a good idea. My character Cherry Valance should win the Bahny awards because she is nice, sweet and she loves Ponyboy for who he is.

My evidence Is that he is the best is cause he cares about Johnny and Ponyboy even if it truly doesn't seem like he does, we can all see that he does.Dallas ,even if a troublemaker in the end he has really changed from outlaw to loving character and actor even if he may talk dirty he’s easily is a great guy.Lets not forget his poor, poor death in The Outsiders it was truly emotional and for him to care so much just to go meet Johnny, is tragic. This supports my evidence that he is a great guy from his death to his actions he was a true friend.

Dallas Winston is mostly an outlaw he’s always doing things the eleagal way from sneaking into a drive in theater and trying to shoot a cashier and dies trying all cause he cared for johnny and just he couldn't stand to live without johnny and he just wanted to see johnny for the last time.

This just shows how much he truly cares for johnny just to go to him.

The final reason that Dallas is the true winner is that he changed throw the story, he was never a flat character, he changed. It started just as he picked up Ponyboy and Johnny and Johnny saved the kids from the fire and as the story changed so did he even if in the end he was still an outlaw he had always cared for Ponyboy and Johnny.

the evidence supports my claim because it shows how much Dallas really cares for the group.

The conclusion to all of this is that he really is an all out true friend he changed throughout the story killing himself over johnny's death finding out were Ponyboy and  Johnny were, wanting to fight with the gang, lying to the cops that he was in a bike incident and getting him to a hospital he truly deserves the award

The Outsiders is the best opinion for best novel. In this book there are a lot of fights and a lot of mental fights in Ponyboys head and probably everyone else’s in the gang. Ponyboy and everybody in the gang get beat up emotionally and physically because they are greasers, they sometimes want to change who they are but they don’t because that is who they are. It shows that friendship comes first and that you should always stay loyal and a good friend. It also shows you that Johnny and Dally aren’t just some greasers that should die but they are actually people that have a life. This novel proves a very good life lesson. I proves that people aren’t bad just because they are perceived as a bad person. Like for instance when Johnny kill Bob the social, it starts some strong controversy because he was still a person and it didn’t really matter if he was social. Johnny felt bad and some of Bob’s friends were really hurt and said he was the best buddy a guy could have. While there are other nominees in this category, The Outsiders should win because it shows you how just because you are perceived as something doesn’t mean that you are that way and that you should stay loyal and a good friend.
